'Two Girls' by Amedeo Clemente Modigliani is an incredibly expressive portrait painted on a rich canvas. The Italian painter, who spent much of his career in France, is known for his unique style characterized by elongated faces, necks, and figures, hallmarks of his unique blend of modern style and expressionism. The portrait, created using vibrant oil paints, demonstrates a surreal, stylistic quality that was not well-received in Modigliani's time, but has since become coveted in the art world. This piece echoes the influences of antiquity and the Renaissance that Modigliani studied in his youth.
